Suet and the Vegan Diet

Suet is a type of animal fat primarily obtained from cattle and sheep. It is a hard, white fat that surrounds the kidneys and loins, and it is valued for its high melting point, making it ideal for pastry and pudding recipes. Suet is traditionally used in British cuisine for dishes such as suet pudding, dumplings, and mincemeat.
